- Intervention effect Cell culture treated fruit stored at 25℃ had lower infection rates than fruit stored at 15℃.
- Intervention effect Cell culture treated fruit stored at 25℃ had smaller lesions than fruit stored at 15℃.
- Intervention effect Spore inoculation 24 h after B 912 gave higher disease incidence than inoculation 48 h later.
